Sometimes browse-url-of-file stops working with Firefox 3.5. I don't
think I have seen this problem prior to Firefox 3.5 but I am not sure.


If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
c:/emacs/u/090801/emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.


In GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2009-08-01
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
configured using `configure --with-gcc (3.4) --no-opt --cflags
-Ic:/g/include -fno-crossjumping'

Forgot to say that it seems like ShellExecute returns a value > 32
since there is no error message.

Just found that

  (w32-shell-execute "open" (buffer-file-name) nil 1)

works, but

  (w32-shell-execute "open" (browse-url-file-url (buffer-file-name)) nil 1)

does not work. Though most of the time the latter works too... - just not now.

So it seems like it is hitting some MS Windows bug (XP Pro). At the
moment I have no good suggestion since just removing the "file:///"
part is problematic (it is "file:" by default but still same problem).
